Am I the only one who watches and already been on multiple cruises.
And we luv that lol
Same!
Nope....love watching the cousins
Nope....there may be something I've missed
I also love watching the lives and sometimes I think we maybe able to answer some of the questions the first time cruisers have. Much love family
You two are so damn cute. I love the way y'all feed off each other. No BS, just great tips. Going on my first cruise in 7 days on the Carnival Breeze out of Galveston. Retired and in my mid-60s. Never thought I would do one. Following you two have convinced me I'll have a great time.
Thank ya. Have a good time ✅
Get an EXPERIENCED travel agent. My first cruise was HORRIBLE!!! Lynette and Stanley are the BEST - I was fully prepared.
Aww thank you so much.
I’m getting more and more nervous as each day passes…1 week away and I’ve been watching you guys for a at least a year…
I took my first cruise February of last year and I was nervous also but I have watched several of their videos and even went back and re-watched the first time video and what to pack. My family and I were very prepared and had a wonderful time. This content definitely attributed to that. Enjoy your sailing!
Hope you had a great time
@@dinaachtzener352 best time EVER!!! Taking my kids on Sunday for spring break…thank you and safe travels to you and yours…
33 days till my first cruise ever... and it's a carnival cruise🎉
Hope you had a blast! My first one is in 96 days.
Welcome aboard.
Have a great time😊
Just went on our 1st cruise Jan 15 to the 19 on Liberty to Neassau and Princess Cays. We had a blast. We learned we need to get the drink package because at 15 a drink when you buy 4 it pays for its self. We prepaid our gratuity. We didnt eat at the buffet, but we did get the seaday brunch and it was great. The only problem we had was our luggage was delivered to the wrong room. We went with a cash account, and im glad we did, because I heard so many people at guest services complaining about holds on their account.
I’m an avid cruiser but every time I watch your channel I learn something new! I see yall almost to 100k! Lets goooooo 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Appreciate it!! So close :)
Me and the fiancé had our first cruise this past December on the dream. Prepaid grats, and drink package, and excursions. Despite 1 port getting cancelled and cancelled excursions, nothing could stop us! Y’all helped us out so much. We had a BLAST. Ate so much food, didn’t have a worry in the world. Booking our next one in the next few months. Thank y’all so much for all the tips and tools to have a successful trip!
You are so welcome
You guys are a great couple with positive energy. I enjoy your videos.
Thank you so much!
Me too!!!! Always good to have a refresher
Let’s go. Thank you for the tips. 💞💞💞💞
You two are awesome!
I love this. I am preparing for my first cruise. Jan 2025
Great job
Very informative video

Thank you guys so much!
Great video. Very informative.

These are excellent tips for even seasoned cruisers. Great video.👍🏾
My first cruise coming up in February. Great advice and great video, thank you!!
Im taking my first cruise in August, i cant wait❤
I am so happy and grateful for your information. I would have been completely lost without you guys. Thanks family!🤩
I’m an experienced cruiser but I enjoyed all these tips 😂🛳️ I’ve made most of all these mistakes 😂
Great real life tips. Thank you for your time.
First time commenting but we love your videos! Thank y’all for sharing! These were tips I needed 3 cruises ago lol! We missed out on so much on previous cruises but on our recent NYE cruise on the Dream (Galveston), we prepaid for all shore excursions and dining (The Chef’s Table) as well as prepaying for the gratuities and that was a lifesaver! We also were able to enjoy sea day brunch on all sea days lol. We had the time of our lives! We’ll be using the tips on our Thanksgiving cruise on the Jubilee!
I’m 39 & Going on my first carnival venezia cruise to Bermuda in July, so this video is much needed lol #TunedIn
I watched your videos ! I went on my first cruise last month on the Magic ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. Thanks
24 days til my cruise!! Conquest 2/11-2/16 perfect timing!!
Will be my first this summer....... yayyyyyyy
Going on my third cruise this year and really appreciate your channel & tips!
Hello I been on 4 cruises years between each, but I am glad to have ran into your videos. We have only been on Carnival and really enjoy each time. Thanks for the tips and reminders.
going on a cruise next year with my family this is very helpful! i’m excited but also scared this is my first time
Thanks for the info. Going on my first cruise this weekend. And didn't get much information from someone. Lol
I'm going on my first cruise in January, and your videos are helping my overthinking so much. Thank you.
You have the best information and tips of any videos I have watched! Great job
Glad it was helpful!
I left my favorite pair of shoes on a ship years ago. I'll never forget them. 😪😂
dang!
Thank you....I've been on few cruises and but stopped due to pandemic. I'm about to start back now. First cruise on June 2nd thru 9th. I can't wait.
25:50 - 27:25 Yes, when I get on my first cruise hopefully soon this year, just haven't set a date yet but its a goal. I will definitely do this tip to check the safe to make sure all my valuables are protected, especially on the disembarkation day. Thanks again for all your cruise tips lynette and stanley ❤❤❤😊.
Love for you both! ❤❤ Great tips! Always appreciate yall!
Our pleasure!
Thanks to you 2, we are going on our second cruise, one day we hope to meet you 2, we go on the bigger cruise, we going back on the Carnival Valor to Progreso and Cozumel this time, I appreciate your information, God bless you 2
I’m going on my first cruise to Mexico on the Firenze for my birthday in October! 7 days woo! Going with my husband and his grandpa, and we also invited my husband’s sister & boyfriend so I’m sure it’ll be a blast! We wanted to start traveling but on a budget (who isn’t lol!) so I’m grateful for your videos! Very informative!
We weren’t sure last year when we booked about the room but I’m glad we got a balcony cabin and it’s in the middle of the ship towards the middle end so we should be good. Thankfully I also have non drowsy motion sickness meds!
I just watch these because they're so entertaining 😂
Aww thank you
I love y’all’s videos. I’m going on my first cruise March 21st-25th on Carnival Freedom for my 30th bday. I going with a friend who had been on multiple cruises but I’m nervous and your videos are definitely helping me soooo much getting prepared!! Thank you!!
That booking at the last minute got me spoiled 😩. I have only been on one cruise and my husband and I both agree best vacation ever. While looking for another cruise we booked a cruise that went out the next day and it was $160…for both of us ocean view. But, ima go the travel agent route because I really feel like y’all have the best deals!
If they could see me now, right on a fun ship cruise, eating fancy foods doing what you choose, I'd like my friends at home to get a good look, at the first great Carnival cruise that you took.
Can't believe I'm the first one to comment, first of all happy new year. You guys give the best tips and information for cruisers, even seasoned cruisers can use all these tips ... thanks so much. Love you two much ❤
my 1st cruise was on in a interior I book balcony can’t wait for my kids and I cruise 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I can't wait, and I'm nervous...
So true about using a TA. I booked first time cruisers and I educated them on everything from checking in for their trip to disembarkment. Travel Insurance is a must! I had to cancel one of my cruises last year and received a refund from Carnival within 2 days! The best advice I give them is to not sweat the small stuff.
Greatest content on the internet. Love you guys keep it up❤❤❤❤
Wow, thanks!
11 days until my first cruise! I still haven't finished packing, but it's all good 😂
I just want to say thank you cause my first carnival cruise went off smoothly because of y’all advice.
Aww you are so welcome
Love your channel! Very informative for beginners...I'm very seasoned cruiser & traveler! I totally agree with your content for rookies. I had to learned the hard way..lol..continue the good work you're doing🙂
Awesome! Thank you!
I just booked for my first cruise today thank you for all the tips.
Have fun!
Hey family! Got back today from my carnival 🎡 cruise and LOVED IT 🥰 THANK YALL! now it’s hard to watch these videos because I am so ready to go back lol 😂 BUT IM STILL GONNA PUSH THROUGH AND SUPPORT! Ready for cruise 🚢 2!!!
🥰
What's good y'all!! You know I'm watching, and taking notes. Happy New Year. Celebration May 12th, and I'm ready!!
Happy new year!!
Planning our first family cruise in June 2024. I really enjoyed this video; I will definitely take your advice and tips. I'm so nervous to plan this but I have been putting it off for years and I really want to do it this year!!!! The only problem I am having is finding a cabin that fits 5 people, 2 adults and 3 children. I could call and do it by phone, but I want to see what is being booked beforehand since it's our first time and I have no idea what the cabins are located. Would you being willing to do a video for cruiser that have 3 or 4 children or 5 or more in one cabin. I didn't see many videos like this!!!!
Good morning I will be going on my first cruise in December carnival Mardi Gras I have a question about drinks that you can bring on board are you able to bring crown royal that are in cans they come in 4 in apack
Very interesting! I have never been on a cruise and was thinking about it! Thank you for the tips!!! Xoxo JusBuTTer
Any time! How you doing sis ?
Well right now I am going through a storm!!! But I know the sun will be coming out soon!!! ❤ xoxo JusBuTTer
Here watching ❤
Good afternoon. I am traveling on the Carnival Valor in Oct. We are staying on Deck 2, back area..Please tell me if you have ever stayed in the back on deck? thanks so much..I love your energy and so much information you are blessing us with
TIP 14 STORY: I got off the ship and male offered me nookie in his van. I walked 2.5 miles to the beach. Male offered me tickets to party start at 230am. Clubs close at 2am everywhere. Male offered a ride on parasail. He said 1 dollar to go up 39 to come down. It was actually 40 dollars cash tip for his joke.
Omggg
You guys are SO on point with all the information you share. Thank u SO much for sharing. ❤❤❤❤❤ Hubby & l had already booked our first time cruise before I discovered you guys. Now I’m hooked on you videos like a mouse on cheese lol. Regarding extension cords in the room would you recommend the non-surge power strips? Seen a few on Amazon. Also do you think one needs a portable mini fan for the room? Are the rooms stuffy? Thank you again❤
Yes, it has to be non surge protected. Honestly the fan thing depends on you personally. We do and do not know anyone personally that does.
19:07 - I need to stop being bougie and pre-purchase the water bottles rather than drinking the ones in the room.
Ummm yes friend lol
I plan on drinking out of the faucet
Yes!!!!!
Hay Cuzzin🎉🎉🎉
We need to see you on DCL
Never.. not unless we borrow the nieces and nephews but oh no lol.
Question, what if I use cash to fund my sign and sail card and I don't use it all.
On our first cruise we got talked into a private photo session .. didn't even know this was a thing.. butwe love those pictures.. but never again.
Please plan dinner times, please review the schedule on the app, be on time for on board activities, Do whole days of relaxation like swimming, gym, drinking alcohol, beach chairs by the ocean, jacuzzi spa, pedicures, and elegant dining or specialty dining.
Appreciate your videos and advice, i've definately learned alot and feel comfortable going forward with our trip. We have our first cruise coming up in Feb. Carnival Celebration, Cozumel, Costa Maya, Mahogany bay. Could you clarify the passport question? My understanding as a "closed loop" cruise is that the passport is not necessary. Birth Cert. and updated DL should be sufficient correct? Travel partners are concerned i wont be able to get off the ship at these ports. From my research and understanding, i am not concerned. Passport not a requirement for this particular cruise.
Correct ✅
how does cruise cash work?
Wasn’t planning on buying the WiFi plan, but do you know if there is WiFi anywhere in the ports? We’re going to Nassau. Thanks for all your info guys! ❤
Google it. It looks like Starbucks and McDonalds. Check with your cell company if they offer an international plan. ATT has one for 10.00 per day and 5 for the second phone if on the same plan. They only charge you if you use your phone.( It’s more secure than free WiFi).Remember this is just for in port. Remember to put back on the airplane mode once your back on the ship. Have a great trip.
The 12 pack of water is now $14.95
I'm ready to order my shirt
🥰
Seriously I want the T shirts too!
Hey I love your content first time cruiser on the carnival breeze in May my question is do I have to bring my birth certificate and ID in Port to get back on?
ID yes
Hey I really admire y’all for living life to the fullest but how did yall get to do this where you get to travel and who pays for everything because I would love to have my own channel traveling and giving my opinions
checkout our previous video on how we afford to travel.
Question ? So can you bring walkie talkies on board if you have a group? I heard the carnival app lags with communication and Wifi connection? This would be helpful!
You can but honestly you may have the same issue
I have capsule jewelery for traveling, dont bring valuables. Dont be late. I got back on the ship at 3 and we left 530pm.
Hello! What is the closest hotel to the Port of Miami? We will be on Carnival Conquest in December.
There’s several of all price points. Google and locate by distance
Could you recommend which travel insurance you would go with? Thank you!
It depends on the need honestly.
I booked insurance through carnival and when I had to cancel my cruise which was less than 24 hours they didn’t give me my money back. And the insurance was a waste of time. I had to fill out all kinds of paper work to prove why I needed to cancel which was insane. I NEED a travel agent!
Oh wow. Should have escalated that.
Hello I had a question perhaps you can answer. I have watched you guys in RUclips. I have an upcoming cruise leaving from Port Canival and arriving back to the same location.
Do I need a passport or can I use my birth certificates my children and self are traveling.
Thank you for your assistance
Birth certificate and ID will do
Cruising for the first time on Aug 22, 2024
There is a lot of info!
In regards to the sign & sale card, how do I get my money back if I put cash on it when I get on the ship, & say I don't use all of the cash?
Checkout the sign and sail video on our channel
Do you have any comments on the celebration reflection cruise liner or just carnival.
Just carnival
Is there any special things to kno for those who have ostomies?
First time cruising next month...nervous as can be
My advise would be to contact Carnival and have them contact the ADA department.
$400 isn't bad lol the pixels studio is real real nice.
If using Travel Guard insurance on Carnival. which one deluxe, essential or preferred?
Please consult with Travel Guard to weigh which plan meets your need
How do you pre-pay in advance for daily gratuities on a cruse? (Asking bc I don’t want a bill at the end of cruise)
Login to your cruise manager
I have a question, the day you arrive to one of the island ports, do you need to bring your passport with you off the ship just just incase you accidentally do get left behind or how does that work?
I don’t but some people do
What about Carnival gift cards?
So I should have prepaid for tips, insurance and get the meal and beverage package?
Well actually we paid for travels insurance
Yep
Do you pay with the card for the restaurants that aren't included? Or cash at those restaurants such as steak house, sushi, seafood shack.
Prepurchase: online. Onboard: it will charge your onboard spending account.
Roaming charges vary between $2 - $5 per MB 😮 which is expensive 1000mb are 1GB of data. So $2 x 1000mbs / 1Gb $2000 easily
Yep. It’s insane
Do you only book carnival or Royal Caribbean? I’m wondering if you’ve ever been on Norwegian? It will be my first time with them in May.
And Virgin. We don’t have the interest for NCL 😢
Put a shoe. Or you room key into the safe. That way you won't forget your valuables.
